Chapter 47
Before he left, he purchased the Kido Barrier Art #21: Seven Colored Dome and the Kido Barrier Art #23: Hexagonal Pyramid as well as some materials to complete the barrier. He and Retsu cast them around the manor to protect his grandfather and his little aunt. Based on the system, the barrier can withstand attacks from Sovereign Profound Realm cultivators and the barriers aren't visible to mortal eyes. With this, they are protected for a long period of time.
After saying farewell to his grandfather and aunt, Yun Che was back on top of Minazuki with Retsu once more. She cuddles with him after suppressing her desire for five days. She couldn't sleep well because she used to cuddling with his body. Without it, she can't get even an ounce of sleep. She finally fell asleep due to the exhaustion during the barrier's casting. Despite being a powerful barrier, it's still one of the high level Kido.
"Hmm, this princess has been waiting for five days to get out from your world though." Jasmine had no choice but to stay in his inner world for five days. She had been observing everything including the matter about Xia Qingyue's mother in the realm of the G.o.ds. She hasn't seen the capabilities of her children just yet but she can draw to a conclusion that whatever the power their mother has, it might be powerful enough to attract those from that realm into this star realm.
"You could come out and introduce yourself."
"No, I wanted to kept a low profile though. By the way, great job in pulverizing that mountain." Jasmine said to him.
"That poor mountain, last time I used a sword wave to destroy its peak but I used Getsuga Tenshou on it this time. Never expected it actually destroyed the mountain. I don't even know how to gauge my own strength." he wonders. His strength was growing rapidly after his last stunt in the city. He didn't expect he actually destroyed half of the mountain and incinerate the land along with it. He needs to make sure to control his strength in the future.
"Hmmm, so we are we going next?" Jasmine asked.
"Our next destination is going to be at New Moon Profound Palace. However, we are going on a little side trip to the Black Moon Merchant Guild. I really need to purchase some herbs to give those two sweet girls of mine some candy. Moreover, I wanted to go there because I wanted to meet a certain someone."
"Hooo, who is it?"
"You'll see"
Yun Che tried to ask Retsu to help him cultivated his body but Retsu refused to cause even a slightest harm to him. She couldn't bear to harm her beloved young master even if it was just training his body or sparring. Yun Che sighs and couldn't ask her to do something she wasn't willing to do. Besides, she was still too weak to cause a real damage to him. So, he needs to find a replacement. He knew certain someone fits the description and he knew that someone will arrived at the Black Moon Merchant Guild few days from now. He'll make sure to be there to bait that person to help him cultivate his body.
Five hours later, Black Moon Merchant Guild, New Moon City.
Yun Che instructs Retsu to enter his inner world along with Jasmine. This is because he didn't want to spook this person the moment he lays the bait. After restoring to his normal outfit, he takes a stroll around the city to find the location of the guild. However, since he had the system's mapping function, he can easily layout the whole city and he found the location of the guild.
"Man, I am broke as f.u.c.k. System, is there any way for me to gain more Profound coins?"
[Ding….. Host trade 10SP points into 100 Purple Profound Coins.]
...….
...
....
…
.
"Why?....Why didn't tell me about this function before?"
[Ding…. Host did not ask.]
"….You….*sigh….Trade 100SP for 1000 Purple Profound Coins."
[Ding…Trade Successful.]
He could actually feel his inventory was filled with purple coins. To think that he could use this trade before. He really need some spending money after blew it all at the Floating Cloud City taking his
"Let's see, what are the things I can buy for those girls. Since those girls really liked these herbs based candies, maybe I should buy some of these rare herbs." He never used these herbs for cultivation though. These herbs merely gave him 1000XP and its not enough to fill his teeth. All he did during his free time was cultivating some pills to feed his Sogyo No Kotowari little spirits, Mizu and Kaze. These spirits begged him to give them more but he ran out of ingredients. He was bound to look for more.
During his purchase, he looked around the guild to see if the guild has the bait he was looking for. Suddenly his eye caught on something s.h.i.+ny. It was a red crystal in a jade box with fire based aura around it. Based on the system's description, these crystals usually grow in concentrated Yang environment. This is the thing he was looking for, the Devil's Flaming Blood Crystal. They are scarce in the world, and those that have seen it are few in number. Even though it is covered by the jade box, and its aura is quite weak.
"Manager, I wish to make a purchase on that crystal." He asked the woman on the counter. The woman saw the crystal he wanted but she was hesitated to let him purchase it. She saw him as young man with a weird outfit despite having a handsome face.
"Sir, this crystal has been booked by a cultivator. She booked it around 5000 Purple Profound Coins. I don't think you have the…."
*Ching…..
Yun Che points his hand on the counter and 10000 Purple Profound Coin suddenly appeared on the table.
'Spatial Ring!!!!' The woman said in her heart. She never knew this young man with a weird outfit had this much money.
Yun Che made his trade with the system once more to make this purchase. Whoever booked this one have to let it go just because he purchased it with a higher price. Although his action just pulled the money from the system inventory, the woman thinks he actually own a spatial ring. Those with spatial rings are considered high status in the city.
After grabbing the item, he makes his way towards the exit and he was pa.s.sed by a young woman. The woman was veiled but he could actually see her eyes and hair. From what he could see, the woman's eyes were silver. Her silver hair was braided by two small braids on the front and two large braids on the back. At the end of the braids, it was tied by a blue snowflake shaped pins. He couldn't see her face but her body was luscious. Those two well-shaped melons, perfect shaped body and long l.u.s.ty legs. She was considered attractive and beautiful in his eyes. She was wearing a blue robe accompanied by a veil on her face and on top of her head. However, he can feel the woman actually cultivated an iced attribute profound art. But, why did she have a rampaging Yin energy inside her?
Wait, could it be?
He suddenly smile before making his way to the exit. He had found his target. All he need to do is wait for the haul.
As the woman approached the counter. She was greeted by the manager managing the guild.
"I am here for the booked Devil's Flaming Blood Crystal. I heard the price was around 5000 Purple Profound Coins. I am here to make the purchase." The young woman said.
"I am sorry customer. The crystal was purchased by a young man just moments ago."
"What, I booked the crystal. How can the young man purchase it?"
"We use the booking policy in exchange for the customer must pay a booking fee. However, the man purchased it with 10000 Purple Profound Coins. We just give the priority to him. We are sorry for the inconvenience. We return back the booking fee due to the item was sold."
"Do you know where the man has gone to?"
"The young man pa.s.sed you just now. He wears a white robe with a black outfit inside. He has a raven shaped hair and attractive red eyes."
The young woman suddenly stumped because the young man was the one smiling at her just now before he went out through the door. She takes the money and went straight to the door. She extends her vision until she located the young man who was walking further and further from the guild. Found her target, she slowly follows him from behind.
Yun Che however noticed he was being followed and couldn't helped but smiled.
"Hook, Line and Sinker."
He suddenly jump into the air and arrived on the rooftop. He immediately increased his speed and jumped from roof to roof. The young woman noticed his strange behavior and jumped on the roof as well. She follows the young man quietly without losing the sight of him. Yun Che finally arrived at the edge of the city before arriving on top of the city wall. The young woman arrived on top of the city wall as well and decided to confront him.
"Why are you following me?" He pretend to ask the young woman.
"I need that crystal from you. I am willing to pay twice the price." She offered.
"I refuse. I need the crystal as well. Why should I give it to you?"
"That's none of your business."
"Then, our business ends here." He suddenly jumped from the city wall into the forest below. The young woman thought the young man was crazy. There's no way he could survived the jump. Unless he is an Earth or a Sky Profound Realm cultivator. However, this young man is not simple at all. He noticed he was followed by her, that's why he took a scenic route and arrived here. She dismisses that thought and jumped towards the forest as well. She detected the man's aura not far from her current position. The only problem is she couldn't gauge the aura at all. As if the man had no aura but he can cultivate. Even those in the higher levels can be gauge easily. She felt that the man was actually luring her. However, he had the crystal she needs and she was not going to give up. She was willing to fight for that crystal.
The chase continued until they arrived at the plain gra.s.s area a few hundred kilometers from the city. She finally saw the young man sitting on top of the rock as if he was waiting for her. After extending her aura to check the surrounding, she confirmed it was clear before confronting him once more.
"No more running away. No matter how far you run, I can always find you."
"Hooo, are you sure? I ran because I wanted you to follow me. You caught me because I actually let you."
"Who are you?" She asked still being wary of the young man.
Ignoring her question, he said "Are you actually feeling sick in the stomach. As if a cold energy piercing your profound veins. Is it hurt a lot?" He asked her. She was quiet all of a sudden as if he struck a chord.
"I was right. You are actually poisoned by a Yin type energy probably got from your previous fight right? So you need a crystal with Yang attribute energy to dispel the poison."
She was quiet. Too quiet.
"However, the crystal will not work if you try to dispel the poison. The crystal will make it even worse because two repelling energies will collide with one another and those energies can destroy your cultivation."
She suddenly draws her sword and points it at him. "I don't know how you knew my condition. Last chance, who are you and hand over that crystal."
"Let me guess who you are first. Hmm let's see, Blue dress, veiled and ice attribute art."
"Am I right? One of the Seven Fairies of Frozen Cloud Asgard. Chu YueChan?"
